Vivan Sundaram is an artist who has been consistent in his pursuit of a politically honed art. Some of his early work from the 1970s, such as the series The Heights of Macchu Picchu, The Discreet Chann of the Bourgeoisie and The Indian Emergency give voice to a constantly reactive subjectivity.

Sundaram's output of paintings through the 1980s marks his involvement with a historically conscious figuration. Though the use of unconventional media is not new to Sundaram, this series may be seen as being special in the move towards a more conceptually oriented practice, that from then onwards, operates increasingly in three, and then four dimensions. In thematic terms, Sundaram's recent work remains concerned with social and environmental protest, and with 'archaeology' of the recent past.  In terms of practice, he has interests in appositional interventions of Dada and Surrealism.
